4 months down 5 months to go!



Pregnancy Highlights:

How Far Along: 16 Weeks and 1 day 


Size of baby: Baby D is the size of an avocado! 



Total Weight Gain/Loss: Gained 6 lbs


Maternity Clothes: Still wearing my own clothes, haven't had a growth spurt in a while

Gender: 3.5 weeks until we find out

Movement: feeling "stuff" not sure if it is baby or digestion

Sleep: I am a walking zombie can't get enough ZZZZZZ's

What I miss: Nothing really - maybe sleeping on my stomach?

Cravings:
Food as a whole has become a turn off, I am having a hard time getting my iron and protein levels just right

Symptoms: Had a few dizzy spells last week, have a feeling my blood sugar and low blood pressure are going to be a battle as I produce more blood for baby.

Best Moment this week: My husband telling my how beautiful I am as a pregnant lady, and knowing he means it.


I have been a bad mom to be, I need to start taking more "belly pics" to document this time in my life, but it is hard to find the time when I am home, and Dave is home to do this.  I promise a pic next week.  Over all things are great, I had a few dizzy spells last week, so I have up'd my protein and Iron levels and I am trying to eat more food, it just isn't fun to force anything down.   I am heading to Las Vegas for work for the next two weeks, so keep us in your prayers and I cross the nation a time or two
